I went to Donggureung in Guri. This is the largest royal tomb of the Joseon Dynasty. Of course, it is a world heritage site.
This summer, subway line 8, which runs in the direction of Gangnam, Seoul, was extended to the direction of Guri.
*Not covered by the weather card as it is not within Seoul city
I had planned to go by bus, but since I was there, I decided to change to line 8 from Jamsil station and head for Donggureung station to see the new station.
I guess it is called Donggureung because there are a total of nine tombs, including those of Taejo (Yi Seonggye), Munjong, Seonjo, Hyeonjong, Yeongjo (Yi San's grandfather), and six kings and queens.
We walked for about two hours in the morning. We walked a lot. It was a very wide walking course.
If you are going in the summer, they don't suck blood, but there are many small insects like mosquitoes that come to you.
Locals who are familiar with the area were walking around wearing netted hats.
On the way back, we took a bus to Gangbyeon.
